“The votes haven’t even been counted yet, but one thing is certain: The next Congress is going to be filled with losers,” Nathan writes in his latest column. No, he’s not being rude, just pointing out that this isn’t the first race for several candidates in top races.
Candidate confessions
Bob Good, a Republican running in Virginia’s 5th District, observed the anniversary of 9/11 at a Tuesday rally, noting that he watched the events unfold that day on a television in an Atlanta laundromat next door to the office where he was working at the time.
He used the anecdote to acknowledge the law enforcement officers who ran into the twin towers and to attack his Democratic opponent Cameron Webb, who he said was aligned with “leftist radicals who want to defund our police and tear down our institutions.” Webb, who has said he does not support defunding or abolishing the police, released an ad the next day highlighting endorsements from two longtime county sheriffs in the district and noting that his father was a law enforcement official who trained officers at the Drug Enforcement Administration.
Reader’s race: NH-01
Republicans have their sights on this district, which Trump carried ever so slightly in 2016 by fewer than 2 points. In reality, it will be a tall order to unseat freshman Democratic Rep. Chris Pappas, who won two years ago with nearly 54 percent of the vote.
Pappas faces a Trump-backed candidate, Republican Matt Mowers, a former executive director of the state GOP who served in the Trump administration before running for Congress and won his primary Tuesday. Mowers traces his political roots to New Jersey where he worked for former Gov. Chris Christie and was a Bridgegate witness. Offering a glimpse at some of the general election messaging on Mowers, DCCC spokesperson Sarah Guggenheimer referred to him as a “New Jersey carpetbagger” while also hitting him for his support for repealing the Affordable Care Act.
